The story

The story behind Coppiere

Coppiere comes out of Tuscany, made by Schenk Italia, the winemaking group established in 1952. The grapes are Sangiovese, at least 70% for the standard Chianti DOCG and a minimum of 80% for the Classico, blended with Canaiolo, Colorino, Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon under DOCG rules. That is why the wine tastes the way it does: tart red cherry, tobacco, cedar, undergrowth, high acidity and firm tannins.

The 2008 Coppiere Chianti DOCG took a Bronze Medal at the 2010 International Wine & Spirit Competition. We have poured this label for years because it behaves like real Chianti at a price that lets you open a second bottle.

The lineup

Three tiers of Tuscan red, from the everyday DOCG to the Classico Riserva, each built on Sangiovese and priced to drink, not to cellar.

Good to know

Coppiere questions, answered

Is Coppiere Chianti a 100% Sangiovese wine?
No. It is Sangiovese dominant but follows DOCG blending rules. Standard Chianti uses at least 70% Sangiovese, while the Classico expressions use a minimum of 80%, with Canaiolo, Colorino, Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend.
Who makes Coppiere wine?
Coppiere is produced by Schenk Italia, one of Italy's largest wine producers and exporters, established in 1952. Schenk manages a portfolio of regional Italian brands, and Coppiere is its Tuscan Chianti label.
What is the difference between Coppiere Chianti and Coppiere Chianti Classico?
Regular Chianti comes from the broader central Tuscany zone and needs at least 70% Sangiovese. Chianti Classico comes only from the historic heartland between Florence and Siena, requires 80% Sangiovese and longer aging.
How long should Coppiere Chianti Classico Riserva be aged?
By appellation law, a Chianti Classico Riserva must age a minimum of 24 months at the winery before release. That extra time softens the tannins and brings out savory, leather and dried cherry notes.
Does Coppiere Chianti ship, or is it delivery and pickup, plus shipping to the states where it is legal?
Wine ships only to states where it is legal, confirmed at checkout. Around Commack we offer same-day or next-day delivery across Nassau and Suffolk, free curbside pickup, and free local delivery over $250. Must be 21 or older.
